The outside architecture and the convenience of the location on the Vegas Strip.
The room was GROSS. I was shocked when I walked in my room. I found a toe nail clipping on the bathrooom floor, the blanket on the bed was thin and itchy, the furnishings and fixtures were old and run down, the rug was filthy, and NO WIFI in the rooms!This place is just another foreign owned business that doesn't value its clients. They falsely advertise themselves as a three star property but they are more like a 1.5 star property. I don't recommend this place if you don't want to pay top dollar to stay in a 1.5 level property with unclean rooms and cheap, motel quality furnishings and fixtures. If I wanted to stay in a motel I would have stayed across the street and paid way less! What a rip off! ... more

Located in the center of the strip and many options at a short walk. Staff were great. Beds were very comfortable.
Refrigerators in the rooms and Keurig coffee machines & good creamers would be a good upgrade for the rooms. The parking area/garage did not have any signs to direct around the construction. Better advertising of the free valet parking would be good.Their pool area is AWESOME! Three pools, which were great - wave pool with white sand; running current pool with 'floaters' available to spend leisurely, cool trips around the pool. The third pool was designed to offer many quiet spots to have the feeling of more privacy. Staff were great - at check in we were able to have an upgrade to a higher-level floor with views of the strip, housekeeping staff were very friendly and accommodating. Atmosphere at the hotel was a good mix of families, younger and older adults - not too young or too old but 'just right'. ... more

Using Unit of Work Pattern in ASP.NET MVC and Entity Framework
Recently I wrote an article explaining the Repository Pattern and its use in ASP.NET MVC. This article builds on that article and explains another related design pattern - Unit of Work. The Unit of Work pattern states its intent like this - Maintains a list of objects affected by a business transaction and coordinates the writing out of changes and the resolution of concurrency problems.

Using the Repository Pattern with ASP.NET MVC and Entity Framework
Data driven web applications need to have a neat strategy for data access. One of the important aspects of this strategy is the separation between the physical database, queries and other data access logic from the rest of the application. Repository pattern is a popular way to achieve such an isolation. This article discusses the basics of Repository pattern in the context of Entity Framework and ASP.NET MVC. It also illustrates how a repository can be built around your entities.

Creating Asynchronous Actions in ASP.NET MVC
Asynchronous actions allow you to handle more concurrent requests and can be implemented using async / await keywords. Asynchronous actions are useful in situations where you are performing some network operation such as calling a remote service. This article discusses asynchronous actions and also shows how to create them in an ASP.NET MVC.

Problem setting the default value for ASP.NET MVC DropDownList
Recently one of the readers reported a problem that the DropDownList helper is not working as expected. The problem was resolved by slightly tweaking the code but since it sounded like a tricky thing that many beginners would stumble upon I am writing this post. Let's see what the problem is, its cause and finally the little tweak that I mentioned earlier.

Using Attribute Routing in ASP.NET MVC
ASP.NET MVC maps a URL to an action method through what is known as Routing. By default an ASP.NET MVC URL includes a controller and an action name where the request finally lands. However, you can customize many aspects of a route such as root prefix and route parameters. ASP.NET MVC 5 allows you to define routes through certain attributes. This attribute routing is simpler and more intuitive than the older technique of defining routes because a route definition is closer to the controller and its action method. This article discusses how attribute routing can be used with examples.

Performing Asynchronous Operations Using Entity Framework
Asynchronous programming involves executing operations in the background so that the main thread can continue its own operations. This way the main thread can keep the user interface responsive while the background thread is processing the task at hand. .NET framework introduced the async and await keywords that simplify asynchronous programming. Entity Framework 6.0 also supports asynchronous operations for querying and saving of the data. This article discusses the basics of using asynchronous operations of Entity Framework in desktop as well as web applications.

Handling Errors in ASP.NET MVC Applications
No matter how proficiently you developed your application there are chances that your code may not work as expected and will generate an error at runtime. Users may enter some invalid data, mathematical calculations can go wrong, some network level fault may cause errors and more. That is why it is always a good idea to implement a robust error handling mechanism in your web application. To that end ASP.NET MVC offers several techniques that help you build such an error handling mechanism. This article discusses them with examples.

Using LinkedIn JavaScript API for User Authentication and Profile Retrieval
Integrating third-party sign-in with a website is quite common these days. Just like Facebook and Twitter, LinkedIn too allows you to ingrate LinkedIn authentication with your own website. One simple way to achieve such an integration is to use LinkedIn JavaScript API. Using this API you can authenticate a user with their LinkedIn credentials and also retrieve their profile and connection information. Once retrieved you can use that information to integrate LinkedIn authentication with your website's security and membership framework.

One Time Event Handlers using jQuery and ASP.NET
Most of the times the JavaScript event handlers attached with an element fire every time the event under consideration is raised. For example, if you wire a click event handler to the click event of a button then clicking that button will invoke the event handler function every time. At times, however, this behavior is undesirable. You can unsubscribe the click event handler when it gets executed the first time. That means you need to create event handlers that fire only one time. Luckily, jQuery provides an inbuilt way to accomplish this task - one() method.

Residents born and raised in Glenside were shocked to find out that four homes in the quaint community have been burglarized over the past two weeks.
So far, Abington police say thieves are targeting areas not far from Keswick Village, stealing small items like jewelry from houses on Oakdale, Parkdale and Woodlawn Avenues.
"Maybe because we're not used to it, people aren't aware of it and are very lax in keeping their doors open, not being as aware," suggests one resident.
Police say the burglaries seem to be happening in the early evening, possibly when homeowners go out to dinner.
Despite hearing the news, Glenside resident Kristin Smith says she feels fairly safe here thanks to her guarddog Teddy and a community watching out for one another.
"I have a neighbor that lives across the street that like everytime I leave for vacation they're like we got your house, we got your mail everyone's very community oriented and look out for each other which is awesome," says Smith.
Police have not given a description of the person or people responsible for the burglaries. They hope to release more information in the coming days.

Note to SEC marketing staff, do not leave off center and western Texas from the logo. There are more people that live in that geographical area that many SEC states in total. Very important to pull them in and feel included as the SEC netrwork unfolds.
Ah, as summer gives way to fall it's time for that annual rite that so many of us enjoy — and by "us," I mean, "not me" — the corn maze. This year the corn maze at Shryocks Callaway Farms about 12 miles outside of Columbia, Missouri will feature Mizzou's Tiger holding the SEC logo over a map of the Southeast. The words "A NEW ERA," are part of the design, too.
You can see the size of the maze by comparing it to the house/barn at the bottom of the photo. It ain't small, people.
For several years the farm has gone the corn maze route. This year, their efforts suggest folks in the Show-Me State are every bit nutty enough — or corny enough — to keep pace with the other 13 rabid fanbases with whom they now share a conference. (Here's hoping Jack Nicholson doesn't fit too late in season.)

This Forum was created to divert traffic from Current Events at the height of the BALCO scandal. It comes and goes as "needed"; it's back to being locked.
Almost makes one feel sympathy for Chambers:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/olympic ... 517713.stm
There is a wrinkle -- she declined to come before the IOC to defend herself and turned in her credentials instead. Those credentials are still 'turned in' and she is going to have to go in front of the IOC to get them back. She is probably not going to do it and they are not going to make it easy.
How do you feel about convicted dopers, Torrie Edwards and Damu Cherry being on the US team?!
I would be in favor of stricter penalties for doping of serious nature, i.e. hormones, epo, etc. and lifetime OG bans are not unreasonable. I don't recall what Torri did, but my recollection is that hers was of a "lighter" nature and thus she should be ok. However, what now is a 2-year ban is a serious violation.
What it says- that I personally don't WANT her in the Olympics, but I can't see how they can refuse...it's ridiculous when others are allowed, same as I thought about Chambers. However, I didn't know that about the accreditation thing...
As for Cherry , I feel the same way I do about Thanou...
Edwards less so. Whatever your opinion about her (and I know there are a few on here who don't believe for a minute she is clean), the whole nikethamide (sp?) was downgraded just after her ban and is no longer a 2 year punishment...
Your flawed indictment of Torrie gets a little tiresome/boring - it was a secondary infraction (although it took IAAF/WADA awhile to go from evidence to action in reducing the categorization) and why exactly would she be wanting a light (at most) advantage in an early-season meet of no consequence?
In my mind Cherry is a different kettle of fish and is not high on my list of athletes I admire. I was disappointed so see athletes like Powell not on the team while she made it.
And why don't you read, my dear boy...I actually have no issue with Torri Edwards whatsoever, I said that many people on this board do. Whatever you believe, the facts show she tested positive for something which is now considered a "minor" stimulant- I have no problem with her competing in the games at all...
It is like a driver with a DUI that refuses to take a breath test. Some of those involved are already convicted of crimes, hers has just been put off 'n' times. Since she did not appear she gave up her credential for the Games and does not have one yet.
I'm just pointing out what I feel is a strong US bias in these doping conversations.
You guys are always given the benefit of the doubt or citing some excuse, exception for the US athletes; while non-US athletes are seemingly always guilty.
Play fair guys.
Re: Thanou
well, add the christine ohurogu situation (same offense as ms. thanou and same olympic association as mr. chambers) and surely you must be devasted for mr. chambers. will be interesting to see the british reaction when ms. ohurogu wins the 400m in beijing.
Re: Thanou
Incorrect...Thanou was convicted of "avoiding" tests
Ohuruogo was convicted of "missing" tests and the authorities went to the trouble of saying there was no suggestion this was done intentionally or that she was on drugs.
Entirely different matter
Re: Thanou
You have to stretch the comparison a lot to call it the same.
I think quite the opposite. Conte just came out in an article saying he thinks Caribbean runners are doping but no one is ranting and raving about it...it's just written off as him trying to bring the whole sport down after being caught.
Typically, in my experience, US athletes are guilty until proven innocent since Marion, Tim, Gatlin, etc. (and to some degree I understand the sentiment). I don't think its a bias about US athletes...at least not to the degree your claiming. If anything, I think the U.S. athletes face more scrutiny because many of their top stars of yesteryear have been found guilty and thus, anyone who does something mind boggling is looked at with a cautious eye from the world.
As for Torri, that is pretty cut and dry. It was a case of negligent use, she served her time without denial and the rule was later changed. What's tough about that one?
I think non-U.S. athletes get the benefit of the doubt more than a U.S. athlete in most cases.

A motorcycle, to fake a crash whilst avoiding taking a drug test that she knew she would fail as she was taking vast amounts of PED's along with her training partner and convicted drug peddling coach.
Pure conjecture!
Re: Thanou
the punishment is the same, whether the offense is avoiding or missing the tests. just don't be surprised if john q. public doesn't get your subtle distinction if ms. ohurogu beats one of the heavily hyped u.s. stars of the games.
Re: Thanou
Certainly the US and European athletes go through more scrutiny than the Caribbean athletes - that is not my point (and we can't rant and rave about drug use by athletes that haven't been caught on this board -that's against the rules).
But there is (in my opinion) a double standard against non-US athletes on this board when it comes to doping discussions.
For example it was never mentioned on this forum once when Damu Cherry qualified for the Olympic team that she is a convicted drug cheat. Nobody mentioned a concern that she is getting a chance to compete at the Olympics. But plenty of comments about Nesterenko and Thanou and Chambers and other Europeans returning to the Olympics.
When we starting talking about the 80s, everyone jumps on the Eastern Europeans, but FloJo and her teammates are generally excluded from that kind of discussion.
If a non-American comes out of nowhere or back from the dead with a great time - it's suspicious. If it's an American - it's awesome.
You mention Americans are considered guilty until proven innocent, but I have not heard a suspicious word about Tyson Gay ever. Can't say the same about Asafa Powell.
As far as Gatlin and Jones and concerned, guys were defending those two vehemently right up until they said they were guilty. I know because I remember arguing with them right here on this board.
I am not saying that Thanou or others aren't guilty, I am just saying let's not be so naive as to think US athletes don't have their fair share of guilty athletes too.
Of course I am not talking about everyone on this board, but definitely a lot of people have this attitude.
Re: Thanou
Tell me how training in Chicago, when you should be in a completely different country, is different to being at a different track due to your normal one being in use by an unanticipated event?
Re: Thanou
that is the point -- the rules do not recognize a difference. and there is a reason the rules provide for a suspension after 3 (not one or two) missed tests no matter the excuse.
Re: Thanou
So you don't see the difference AND the rules don't see a difference?
they were suspended for the same offense -- 3 missed tests. the only difference is that there is extraneous evidence suggesting that ms. thanou evaded the tests in order to escape an otherwsie inevitable positive test and no such evidence has come to light in ms. ohurougu's case. i choose not to believe ms. ohuroughu's explanation, however.
it just seems odd that mr. chambers is villified for attempting to overturn his olympic ban while ms. ohurougu is cheered for having succesfully overturned hers.
You don't see any difference in the manner that the evasion took place? The whole point here is you seem to think everyone should be viewed the same on their return. Why would any logical person do that given that one athlete was hop-scotching around the world trying to avoid testers and the other was not? That you choose to think they are similar is your choice but don't sound so surprised when others disagree.
Not by me, i said i think he should run.
A number of people have commented on this over the last two years; relief that she did not get in last year, disappointment that she did this year (see my post, for instance, where I respond to Torri and Damu as very different cases).
As for the British purist on doping who post often on that topic, I do not want to hear it unless you apply it to O, otherwise it is just ...
I honestly fail to understand how people can't see the difference between the Ohuruogo case and that of the recent American positives, Chambers and Thanou...
I fully supported Christine's ban- she deserved it entirely- but to say it's in the same league really is ludicrous. It just doesn't fit the facts and anyone saying otherwise really is talking utter rubbish
And that's not from a "British purist" point of view, I'd quite happily have the same view if the same facts had been revealed about an American athlete, hell, even a Greek. Purposeful test evasion is NOT the same thing as the admittedly stupid situation the Big O found herself in...
You fail to acknowledge a key difference. Thanou missed three of IAAF/WADA's tests. Ohuruogu missed three of UK Sport's tests. National governing bodies test far more frequently than IAAF/WADA (or at least they do in the UK - unfortunately it's not the same in every country), so it is easier to miss three tests within an 18-month period. Relatively speaking, the IAAF/WADA tests don't come up as often, so it is quite difficult to actually miss three tests within a short period of time. By some freak incident (I heard a motorcycle was involved), Thanou and KK managed to do exactly that. There is plenty of other evidence showing that they were going out of their way to avoid being tested - hence why they received a ban.
Ohuruogu, on the other hand, was tested many times during that 18-month period. When you get tested so often, it is almost inevitable that you will miss a test at some point (dozens of British athletes have - that's the downside of being tested so often). There was no evidence whatsoever that Ohuruogu was purposely evading tests - if there was, then she would have been banned for two years.
When the testers came knocking for KK/Thanou, they were in a different country. When the testers came knocking for Ohuruogu, she was 20 minutes around the corner (but the flaws in the testing system did not allow the tester to contact and/or meet with Ohuruogu, which would have prevented the missed tests).
I still can't believe some people (especially 26mi235) cannot differentiate between the two cases. There is about as much similarity between Thanou and Ohuruogu as there is between a kettle and a rabbit.
Does anyone know if KK and Thanou were tested at all during the time frame that they missed the tests? Or were the three missed tests the only time that the IAAF tried to test them during that time?
Sounds good to me, Nesterenko 9.82, Thanou 9.83 - that'd yank a second from her PR. Then we could have something like the Wacky Olympics in Middle School, where the best girl races the best boy. Oh, and I'd love to see Torrie Ewards become the modern equivalent of Chi Cheng, becoming the first real woman to run a 100 in "even time" - 3rd in 10.00. But that'd be a bit too dark for my liking, et toi? eh twat?
I very much DO differentiate, I was taking a bit of a shot at someone that seems not to, unless the party involved is one of his favs (i.e., attacking Torrie for a minor violation that would have advantaged her not at all in the sport vs 'O', who maybe also just made mistakes but did indeed commit what is still considered a major violation, and then throw in Gatlin's extreme sin of having had a 'no-advantage' minor violation that then kills his career even though he cooperated like all of the super-anti-cheating people would like).
i understand all of that -- but no need to overstate your case. the bottom line is that they both got suspensions for missing 3 tests . a better comparison would be between a pot and a kettle. furthermore the pot/kettle comparison only works if you believe ms. ohurougu's testimony that she was not trying to evade the tests. all of this in the context of an athlete who after coming back from her ban proceeds to run almost a full second less than her previous seasonal best in the wc final. (please, save the explanations -- i am aware of them)
let me state it again. i don't believe her.
moreover, none of the differences you have identified above should dictate that one is allowed to compete in the olympics but not the other. a fortiori, mr. chambers, who was before the same august body as ms. ohurougu.
New disciplinary hearing if she makes it to Beijing:
http://www.iht.com/articles/reuters/200 ... THANOU.php
This weakens your argument, contrary to what your reasoning skills have led you to believe. "Hey, it happens all the time! "Everyone" is doing it! What's the big deal?" If it is "almost" inevitable, then it is not inevitable, and this is not an excuse. The fact that so many Brits have missed tests may just as easily mean they are adept at evading them.
Certainly I have no way of knowing with absolute certainty whether Ms. O was evading tests, or was just incomprehensibly careless - but if British athletes are being tested "frequently" then it behooves them to be intelligently responsible and sufficiently frequently prepared, so as to avoid, at the least, the appearance of deliberate evasion.
Finally, are you saying that Britain tests more than any other nation? Is there another nation that tests as frequently? If so, do the athletes of that country miss tests as frequently as British athletes? How does the British record of missed tests : total tests compare with that of other countries? These are important questions, too.

Ubuntu 9.04: Fast Starter
Canonical has released its next Ubuntu offering in its typical half-year cycle. Fresh software and a faster startup characterize the new distro.
Given the name Jaunty Jackalope by Ubuntu patron Mark Shuttleworth, Ubuntu 9.04 has Kernel 2.6.28-11, the GNOME 2.26.1 and KDE 4.2.2 desktops, X.org-Server 1.6
and OpenOffice in version 3.0.1. Shuttleworth also insisted on faster boot performance, which the developers delivered mainly by fine tuning the boot process, without requiring special software.
Newly included is support for the ext4 filesystem (from Kernel 2.6.28) that is an available choice at partitioning. Ubuntu is set up as a Live system that can turn into a full installation. The project provides an overview and download as 32-bit or 64-bit. It was just in the prior week that we had announced its first release candidate.

One week after members of the House returned, the Senate reconvenes from its Thanksgiving recess. There are a few hearings on the Senate side to keep an eye on—including a look at advanced manufacturing, the digital trade agenda and domestic energy production by small businesses. Manufacturing innovation also gets a look on the House side from the Committee on Science, Space and Technology. Other topics covered are the state of online gaming and small business contracting.
Early in his Administration, President Enrique Peña Nieto embarked on a serious mission to fuel entrepreneurial growth by challenging Mexico to better tap into its people's creativity and boost productivity. On January 11, 2013—less than two months after he took office—he signed a decree that created the National Institute for Entrepreneurs (INADEM). Few governments have institutionalized their commitment to building an entrepreneurship ecosystem as highly as Mexico, which now has a decentralized administrative office of the Secretariat of Economy dedicated to entrepreneurs.

Pat Martino: To Renew A Life In Jazz
AAJ: I see that you focus on principles rather than a formula.
PM: It's a bit more logistic than it is theoretical.
AAJ: Your website covers this material quite well, with illustrative images. It's an excellent website, very user friendly, accessible. Tell us about the webmaster.
PM: His name is Richard Cann. He has a PhD in music as well as being a mathematician. He's into computers, and has been involved with Black Diamond Systems for quite some time. He was one of the first electronic music composers whose work was recorded. In fact, when the computer was the size of a wall, he was involved in electronic music when you could only produce maybe one minute of electronic music, after so many days of using the computer! So, he was very involved at that early phase, along with Morton Subotnick and others. He's very gifted.
AAJ: The website gives a listing of your record collection, which sorts out by type, so you can view classical, jazz, etc.
PM: I haven't even begun with it! It's a recent thing. I haven't begun to insert all of the pop and rock music that's influenced me. I think it's very valuable for other individuals who are curious as to what a certain artist listens to and what affects that artist.
AAJ: I heard a British music scholar on NPR- his name escapes me- give a wonderful talk on why he considers Bob Dylan a great composer. He went into great depth and detail about Dylan's work as an art form. He conveyed a great respect for some pop musicians as genuine creators. Now, your record collection is very eclectic, classical, jazz, rock. Your classical list includes composers from Bach and Mozart, to Takemitsu, Bartok, Rochberg, who taught Uri Caine, Leonard Bernstein. Some jazz artists are very much into the classical repertoire, while others are not. There was a time when a group of them got together in Gil Evans' apartment one night, and he played a recording of Stravinsky's Rite of Spring, which then had a major influence on jazz at that time. Once, in fact, Stravinsky came to hear Charlie Parker perform at Birdland'
PM: Stravinsky really loved jazz. One of his favorite bassists was Richard Davis.
AAJ: So, Stravinsky is sitting ringside, and Parker's bassist whispers to Bird, 'Hey man, Igor Stravinsky is in the audience!' Whereupon Parker inserted parts from 'The Firebird' into his chorus of 'Koko.' Stravinsky was totally surprised and overjoyed!
PM: (laughing): That's great!
AAJ: So there is cross-fertilization between classical and jazz. I'm wondering how that plays out for you, personally. Which of these composers come into your music?
PM: Gee, you know, it's difficult to be specific, in terms of it being part of the menu that I draw from. When I tour, I find that when the engagement is complete, I find it difficult to continue in one context. It's a necessity to retain a broader sense of enjoyment of all forms of art, different forms. I enjoy so many different kinds of music, different cultures as well. I enjoy Sting, I enjoy Earth, Wind, and Fire. I enjoy Elliott Carter. I enjoy so many different types of music, because it's the world that I'm in. And I would find myself foolish not to, and almost like a horse with pads on the sides of my eyes. These blinders had to be taken off a long time ago for the freedom of choosing directions of my own choice. So it is the freedom and the imagination to be able to consistently and repetitively to force myself into confrontation with, not only the abstract, but to simplify it into dissonance and consonance. To have them both stand before me at all times is a necessity. Whether it be seen in hip-hop music or in Krizysztof Penderecki makes no difference to me. It may seem dissonant in terms of first contact with it. But I need to be exposed to dissonance, primarily because the more I'm exposed to it, the more consonant it becomes, and the more I'm exposed to consonance, the more dissonant it becomes, Due to boredom, it loses its excitement and I get tired of it, and dissonance begins to enter. I see how it sculptures itself to the surrounding it appears within. And I am no longer so focused on my own intentions that I take the pads off my eyes, and I begin to see the intentions of others. And by doing this, I participate with others, and I grow from the experience. This to me is a necessity, not only to participate in it on both of its sides (its polarities), but to be able to witness it from a third point of view, which is neutral to either of them, which is honestly the most realistic point of perceptive value of them all.
AAJ: So, you wouldn't take some idea from Penderecki and insert it in your playing?
PM: I may, I might. And that may have a great deal to do with the impact of the dynamics of the event in that solo that may literally be a cluster that is put together in such a way that it's dense, that instead of the standard two-five chord resolution, the two and five are altered in their impact, how long it lasts, the staccato- like BAM!- I might be affected by that. And of course that might take place on a day in which someone inflames me, makes me angry. This has a great deal to do with the reality of music, and so little to do with scales and modes and chords and idioms. It has everything to do with life and the freedom to be able to be able to release the very things that encase us.

The term creationism is often used in a derogatory sense to suggest the inferiority of a religious viewpoint (as opposed to a claimed scientific viewpoint exclusive to evolution), but this use is deceptive. The belief in creation is not an auxiliary belief attached to the Bible; instead, creation is the logical conclusion of a clear reading and understanding of Genesis in its intended form—that is, as a historical narrative. This historical narrative, which was given to humanity by the infallible Creator, is the basis and foundation upon which a biblical worldview is based.
There are various forms of creationism, including old-earth creationism, progressive creationism, and young-earth creationism (some also label the Intelligent Design Movement as being a form of creationism). Most forms of creationism contend that an intelligence, not natural processes, created the universe and all life. However, only young-earth creationism is supported by a straightforward reading of Genesis without introducing outside suppositions and beliefs foreign to the text (e.g., that "science" has proven the ancient age of the earth).
Based upon the biblical account, there are seven main tenets (the "7 C's") of young-earth creationism: 1) the triune God of the Bible created the earth, the universe, and all life around 6,000 years ago (some allow for a range of 6,000–10,000 years old); 2) humanity rebelled against God, and God removed some of His sustaining power, which led to death and suffering (the Curse); 3) a year-long global catastrophe (the worldwide Flood) 4,000–5,000 years ago destroyed all land life not aboard Noah's Ark and much of the sea life (evidenced by the fossil record); 4) God judged humanity by causing a confusion of languages at the Tower of Babel, giving rise to the various people groups around the world; 5) Jesus Christ (God made flesh) was conceived by the Holy Spirit and physically born of a virgin over 2,000 years ago; 6) Christ died on the Cross and rose to life again to make a way for humanity to be restored to God; and 7) Christ will one day return to judge the earth (the consummation).
Creationism, like evolutionism (or naturalism), is an interpretive framework through which all data is processed. Both are based upon beliefs about the past and past events, but only one, creationism, relies upon an eyewitness account. Attempts to place naturalism outside the realm of belief are untenable.
The terms creationism and creationist are often used to distinguish those who do not accept naturalism as a valid explanation for how the universe and life came to be. However, creationism (specifically, young-earth creationism) entails a wide range of fields, including geology, biology, astronomy, physics, theology, etc., and is not a scientific or theological discipline in and of itself. Instead, it is a biblically based framework through which all data are interpreted.
Contrary to popular belief, science is not naturalism (the belief that life and the universe were not created, but came about by non-teleological processes). In fact, many of the earliest Western scientists were creationists and relied upon their belief in God and the Bible to aid their research, and many creationist scientists today successfully experiment and make important discoveries (e.g., the MRI).
Science is a tool that is used to discover data about the universe. While science can uncover much about how the universe works in the present, neither science nor the data uncovered through the scientific method can independently provide knowledge about the past. Instead, science concerned with origins and past events (historical science) depends upon the researcher's existing beliefs and framework.
Creationists base all of their research and conclusions upon the biblical record. In other words, nothing in science (or any field) makes sense except in light of God's Word. Where the Bible does not give specifics, creationists form hypotheses and models that accord with what the Bible teaches about the world and test these hypotheses against present data. Thus, hypotheses can be discarded, but the biblical record is not. Although this is often a point of derision, evolutionists rely upon the same methodology: that is, while hypotheses are discarded, the belief in evolution is never questioned.
In the simplest form, creationism is the belief that some form of intelligence created the universe and all life, as opposed to the universe and life arising without an intelligent cause. Although the age of the earth is often cited as an aspect of creationism, there are numerous schools of thought. In fact, the age of the earth is usually either derived from uniformitarian beliefs (i.e., the present is the key to understanding the past) or the biblical record.
While some creationists (in the strictest sense of the word) claim to believe in an intelligent creator, they refuse to postulate on the identity of this creator. However, most creationists believe that the Creator left both evidence of His work and a record of His activity, which are recorded in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible and the Jewish Torah. This record, which purports to be an eyewitness account and is attested to by the evidence, is the basis for most creationist thought.
There is some disagreement among creationists (particularly between old-earth and young-earth creationists) about the age of the earth. However, a straightforward reading of the text does not support the ancient age many scientists claim (4.5 billion years) and is only necessary for those wanting to insert popular belief into what the Genesis narrative teaches.
Young-earth creationism is founded upon the belief that the Bible is what it claims to be: the inspired Word of the Creator. As such, young-earth creationists rely upon a straightforward reading of the Bible as foundational to all belief. A straightforward understanding of the Bible means that the reader accepts the form of literature as it is written (whether historical, poetic, prophetic, etc.) and does not impose "outside knowledge" (e.g., evolution, the ancient age of the earth) onto the text. This method is supported by Christ Himself when He is explaining the Old Testament to others.
(Genesis 1–2) With this as a guide, the Bible teaches that God existed before the universe and created all things in six sequential, 24-hour days (this is easily determined by the emphasis put on numbering the days and insisting upon each having an evening and a morning). God did not create all the species of animals that exist today, but, rather, He created kinds of animals with genetic variability to generate different species. In addition, God created human beings as an entirely unique kind (not related to any animal kind) in His own image (later called Adam and Eve).
(Genesis 3) Adam and Eve rebelled against God in the Garden of Eden (which no longer exists). Because of their rebellion, God removed some of His sustaining power, meaning that the earth and the universe were cursed with sin and decay. However, God also promised to provide a Savior (i.e., Jesus Christ) to save humanity from death.
(Genesis 5, 11) The biblical account also includes careful chronologies of those living from Adam until Noah and then Noah to Abraham. These chronologies are instrumental in determining the approximate age of the earth.
(Genesis 6–9) Because of humanity's continued and increasing wickedness, God, as the Creator, judged the earth with a worldwide Flood that covered "all the high mountains." Because of His mercy, God provided a way out for those who would accept His offer in the form of a giant ship (the Ark). Noah, his family, and the animal kinds boarded the Ark and survived; however, all other humans and air-breathing creatures outside the Ark died, as did many sea creatures in the raging waters.
(Genesis 10–11) The people and animals that survived on the Ark are the ancestors of all humans and animal species alive today. The descendants of Noah did not obey God's command to disperse throughout the earth and multiply. Instead, they remained on the plain of Shinar and decided to build a great tower. God judged their ungodly attitude by causing them to speak various languages. The people finally dispersed and, because of the great genetic variability, formed the people groups that exist today (e.g., Asians, Caucasians, Africans).
The order of events as recorded in the Bible is as follows:
|God created light
|Genesis 1:3–5
|God created the expanse/sky
|Genesis 1:6–8
|God gathered the waters into one place and made the land appear; God created plant kinds
|Genesis 1:9–13
|God created the sun, moon, and stars
|Genesis 1:14–19
|God created the sea creature kinds and the flying creature kinds
|Genesis 1:20–23
|God created livestock, ground-dwelling, and wild animal kinds; God created the human kind; God gave man dominion over the earth and gave green plants for animals and humans to eat
|Genesis 1:24–2:1
|God rested and set apart the seventh day as holy (the origin of the seven-day week)
|Genesis 2:2–3
It is important to note that the order of events listed is not compatible with current secular thought about the origin of the universe and life and, thus, precludes any attempt to allegorize the text to fit unbiblical ideas. For example, evolutionism posits that plants did not appear until after the sun coalesced and the first life appeared. However, the biblical account is quite clear that God created plants even before He made the sun.
Creationism is certainly as old as the Genesis account, which was given by God as a explanation of His creative process and as a form of how humans should work six days and rest one. Beyond this, young-earth creationism was assumed for most of church history, as the early church fathers attested to a young earth in their writings. In particular, the scholar Archbishop Ussher used the Bible and ancient texts to calculate the age of the earth as accurately as possible—his date of creation being 4004 B.C. His calculations were regarded as expert until recent times.
With the advent of uniformitarian beliefs ("the present is the key to the past"), many in the church quickly compromised the young earth to be in accord with "science." This compromise led to the "reinterpretation" of the Genesis account to fit the idea that the earth had to be ancient.
Although young-earth creationists have continued to practice science (even when most of academia had accepted an old earth), it was not until the publication of the groundbreaking book The Genesis Flood in 1961 that creationist research began to flourish again. After this, several creationists organizations were established, including the Institute for Creation Research, the Creation Research Society, Answers in Genesis, and many others, as well as a number of creationist journals (including Answers Research Journal) and college programs dedicated to research from a biblical perspective.
Creationism in itself is not a scientific discipline. Rather, it is a framework (built upon the biblical account) that informs the scientist as to how to interpret the data. This is not unique to creationists, as evolutionists rely upon naturalism to inform their interpretations.
With the biblical history as a framework, creationist scientists build theories and hypotheses upon the historical accounts recorded in the Bible. Thus, the facts of a recent creation, the Curse, the worldwide Flood, and the dispersement at Babel must all be taken into account when forming hypotheses to test. In addition, no hypothesis is valid if it contradicts any part of what the Bible teaches. This is a matter of necessity, since God cannot lie and has given us understanding about the universe He created. Thus, a hypothesis contrary to biblical teaching is contrary to the nature of how the universe works.
Creation archeologists, unlike their secular counterparts, rely on the Bible as an accurate historical document concerning events of the past. As such, their research focuses on finding evidence of what the Bible describes in ancient cultures, aligning historical timelines to the biblical timeline, and using the Bible as a guidebook for making discoveries.
Creation astronomy addresses the nature of the universe beyond earth. Often creation astronomers study how planetary magnetic fields, spiral galaxies, comets, and other features attest to the young age of the universe. Over the last few decades, there have also been many attempts to explain how light can travel billions of miles in a young universe.
Much creation research in biology is concerned with the study of baramin or created kinds—the original kinds God created. From those original kinds, all the species that have ever lived arose because of genetic variability. Thus, creation biologists and baraminologists try to piece together how many kinds there were originally, how kinds speciate, and how this knowledge can help us understand disease and other maladies.
Creation geology is a growing field focused mainly on the Creation Week and the worldwide Flood as described in the Bible. Beginning with that framework, creation geologists seek clues as to how the earth was reshaped by those events. For example, many believe that the theory of catastrophic plate tectonics gives us clues to how the Flood happened and what changes it brought to the earth's crust. Furthermore, creation geologists also seek to understand how the fossils were laid down during the Flood and the causes and impact of the Ice Age. This knowledge may one day help us understand how our dynamic world works.
The field of genetics is an important aspect of creation, as it reveals the amazing complexity of the genome that God created. The genome is, after all, the information God programmed into all living things. Creation geneticists attempt to uncover the way in which the genome was designed to adapt to a cursed world and how that understanding can help create cures and medical breakthroughs.
A "creationist" theologian is more accurately called a biblical theologian—that is, a person who studies the Bible and accepts a straightforward reading. Theologians are important to all creationist research, as they provide a deeper understanding of the original text. Without this understanding and study, no sound research would be possible.
Almost any field of research can be labeled "creationist," since this depends only upon starting with a biblical foundation. Some creationist researchers were even trained in evolutionary biology, anthropology, and other fields generally associated with naturalism. These researchers subsequently apply their knowledge to understanding God's world through the truth of His Word.

While many groups would fall under this category, the main aspects are simply the belief that "science" has proven the earth is billions of years old and that the biblical account in Genesis contains gaps, metaphorical language, or other means for including vast ages. The need to add such time into the Bible does not arise from the text itself and relies, instead, upon naturalistic assumptions.
Old-earth creationists often adopt other secular and naturalistic explanations and adjust their understanding of the Bible accordingly. Thus, human opinions and ideas have greater authority than the Word of God. Consequently, old-earth creationists often change dates and times based on the most "current" naturalistic explanations.
Because some Christians have thrown out the straightforward meaning of the Genesis account and accepted long ages, they place a gap of indeterminate length between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2. While there are many versions of what happened during this interval, the so-called gap theory undermines the biblical record and does not comport with secular ideas. Thus, it fails on both counts.
Some creationists (especially progressive creationists) believe that the days listed in Genesis 1 are not ordinary 24-hour days, but are periods of varying length (depending on the practitioner). This allows them to make the creation account fit with secular ideas about the age of the universe. After all, the word day has several meanings even in English (as it does in the original Hebrew).
However, the account in Genesis is emphatic that the creation week consisted of six consecutive 24-hour periods, qualifying this with "morning/evening" and ordinal numbers (first, second, etc.). In fact, this was the general understanding of the account until recent times, when anti-biblical ideas crept into the church.
Progressive creation is the belief that nature is, essentially, another book of the Bible, and naturalistic assumptions about the history of the universe are just as valid as the biblical account. All secular theories attested to by "science" trump the straightforward understanding of the Genesis account. Thus, the big bang, death before sin, millions of years of history, and a local Genesis flood are all accepted based on what naturalism teaches.
However, progressive creationists selectively pick and choose which parts of the Bible to accept as written and which parts to "reinterpret" based on secular ideas. Thus, they accept the resurrection of Christ—even though the "book of nature" suggests that resurrections are impossible. Secondly, they completely ignore the order of creation in Genesis on the basis that "nature" supercedes it.
The main problem with this belief is that a sin-cursed earth and universe can only be interpreted correctly in light of God's Word. They are not and cannot be an independent source of revelation.
For more, see What's wrong with progressive creation?
The Framework Hypothesis (or Interpretation) assumes, first of all, that the creation narrative in Genesis 1:1–2:3 is a literary device that reveals God's creative acts in a topical manner (i.e., the order is not meant to be sequential, but based on specific aspects of God's work). Framework supporters also claim that there are figurative elements in Genesis (e.g., repetitive words and structures) that imply the text is referring to two different realms (heavenly and earthly).
While the Framework Hypothesis is touted as a straightforward reading of the text, the need for such a model does not stem from Scripture and is, instead, a desire to integrate naturalistic ideas about the origin and history of the universe. Furthermore, a close examination of the Hebrew shows serious flaws in any attempt to turn what is clearly a historical account into a figurative framework.
For a more detailed look, see A Critique of the Framework Interpretation of the Creation Account (Part 1 of 2) and A Critique of the Framework Interpretation of the Creation Account (Part 2 of 2).
Intelligent Design is only creationist in the sense that the theory posits that the complexity of living and non-living things suggests that there was an intelligent cause (i.e., everything was created). Thus, since it is opposed to naturalism, many lump the Intelligent Design Movement (IDM) in with creationism. This is not a completely accurate assumption, however, as those in the IDM do not specify a creator and do not necessarily accept the Bible as historical. Many in the IDM also accept an ancient age for the universe and the big bang, while others accept common descent (the belief that all living things descended from a single organism).
There are some areas of agreement between creationists and Intelligent Design proponents (e.g., the inability of natural processes to give rise to life), but there are also a number of disagreements (e.g., a definite creator). However, the IDM is not Christian and is not dedicated to the gospel message, which is foundational to true creationism.
Theistic evolution is the belief that God used evolution to "create" all life. God is not detectable in the evolutionary process, but, nevertheless, He at least imparted enough information at the big bang to cause the universe and life to evolve. The line between what is natural and divine is often blurred with theistic evolutionists, but naturalistic explanations are often accepted for the age of the universe and the origin and descent of life on earth. As such, theistic evolutionists regard the Bible as a book concerning moral truths and not necessarily historical truths. However, this begs the question: if one can't trust what the Bible says in Genesis about how life came to be, then why should anyone trust what the Bible says about salvation through Christ.
One of the most cited objections to young-earth creationism is the argument from authority (which is often called a logical fallacy in and of itself). Critics claim, for example, that "science" has proven the age of the earth and the "fact" of evolution. However, science is a tool to discover data and cannot prove anything by itself. That is, the scientist determines what the data "proves" within a belief system.
Every scientist operates within a framework, which informs how he or she draws conclusions. A naturalist interprets all evidence based on their belief in naturalism (no supernatural events or causes), and a creationist relies on a biblical foundation. Thus, "science" does not prove the age of the earth or the factuality of evolution. Science can only uncover evidence that each scientist interprets.
Beyond this, popularity is no litmus test for the accuracy of a proposed idea. If 99% of a group is convinced of an erroneous conclusion, this does not make the conclusion accurate—only popular. There is ample evidence that the earth and universe is young, but these evidences do not speak for themselves—evolutionists interpret them to fit their framework.
Critics often point to carbon and radiometric dating to show the ancient age of the earth. However, most are not aware of the problems with this claim. First, carbon dating cannot be used to date the age of the earth, since radioactive carbon would completely reduce to stable carbon in less than 100,000 years.
Next, dating methods of any type (e.g., radiometric dating) depend upon a number of untestable and unverifiable assumptions. Contrary to popular belief, radiometric dating is not like a clock that shows age. Instead, the only way to verify any type of dating method is to prove that 1) the current rate being measured (decay or accumulation) has always been mostly consistent, 2) the starting amount is certain, and 3) there has been no contamination. Since those assumptions cannot be proven, any dating method that does not rely on a first-hand account is suspect at best.
As with other objections to creationism, the supposed "evidence" of evolution around us or in the fossil record depends upon the starting assumptions of the one viewing the evidence. Evolutionists sometimes claim that a fossil is "transitional," for example. Often, this assertion is overturned later, but, more importantly, creationists look at the same fossil as evidence of the genetic diversity God created. All evidence is interpreted and filtered through a framework. When such proofs of evolution arise, it is useful to separate what was actually found from the suppositions about the evidence.

11:00 AM - 9:00 PM M-Sat
Neighborhoods: Near West End, Sauer's Gardens
Great food! – the service has always been prompt, and the food hot and better then most other places.. they also have several unique items exclusive to this restaurant.. and they are yummy to say the least..
I often check for coupons and also get takeout taxi coupons for extra savings if permitted.. combined with take out taxi and su casa i can't imagine eating anything else.. i like it too much xD
Best Mexican in Richmond?! – The prices, service, and Mexican food at Su Casa are all top notch, 'nuff said. I can't speak to the Greek side of their menu as it's not really something I'm interested in.
It is however a pretty small place with less than ideal parking and the decor consists of some mirrors, newspaper clippings, and photos just kind of thrown around the wall.
But I don't care, I love it.
exellent food! – I first had Su Casa about 6 years ago and have loved it every since. It was right around the corner from where I worked at then and I would eat there AT LEAST twice a week. The chimichangas are incredible! Their staff is very kind and are very hard workers. Prices are very reasonable and food is delicious! I highly recommend the fried icecream!
My favorite! – I've been a regular su casa customer for the past few years and have nothing but good things to say about them. The food is always served incredibly fast, is always steaming hot, and the staff is super friendly. I love their salsa and cheese dip and am a huge fan of the fried chimichangas. All the greek stuff is really good too. Definitely check it out if you are in the area, great food that won't break the bank.
Horrid and unpalitable – As of Mexican decent I never expect a Mexican restaurant to provide "authentic" cuisine, but Su Casa should be charged with a crime for their horrid food. First off, the cooks are from El Salvador and have no idea how to prepare Mexican cuisine. After I realized that it was not typical cuisine, I ordered the simplest dish on the menu.....the enchiladas. The enchiladas were stiff and not prepared in the Mexican style. I attempted two bites and gave up. The waitress offered to prepare another dish, but I kindly declined. I told the waitress if they could not make enchiladas, I could not possibly imagine success in any other dish. I kindly paid my check with 10% gratuity and vowed never to return.
